EasyTicket National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul (MMCA)
📍 종로구 삼청로, Seoul
The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul (MMCA Seoul) sits at the entrance to Samcheong-dong, just east of Gyeongbokgung Palace. Built on the former site of the Defense Security Command, it combines old and new buildings connected around a courtyard, so simply walking to the exhibits becomes part of the experience.
The galleries are spread across several buildings, so you can pick and choose what interests you, or spend around two hours seeing everything. Since it is within walking distance of Gyeongbokgung and Bukchon, it fits neatly into a downtown Seoul itinerary as an indoor stop.
